The design of sealing mechanisms of a manual pressure valve was analyzed with FE analysis for a hydrogen fuels charge and discharge system of FCEV. The damage prediction of the O-ring with respect to the material models of rubbers was calculated by the gap analysis of the backup ring and O-ring according to the internal pressure. Two kinds of the rubber material characteristic models were adopted to the O-ring. One was the linear elastic and the other was hyperelastic of Ogden $3^{rd}$ order model. The experimental data of urethane of Shore hardness 90 was utilized to the curve fitting of hyperelastic properties. It was found that the contact pattern of the backup ring was different in two models and the sealing mechanism was better in the case of the hyperelastic characteristic model.

This paper studies network recovery methods for WDM optical mesh networks, concentrating on improving spare resource utilization. The resource efficiency can be obtained by sharing spare resources needed for network recovery. To improve the sharability of spare resources in WDM networks, methods to share backup paths us well as spare capacity should be studied. The proposed method in this paper uses multiple ring-covers and this method provides fast and simple recovery operation by exploiting the characteristics of logical ring topology, and also provides efficient resource utilization by using multiple distributed backup paths to improve the sharability of overall spare resources in the networks. This method can provide layered reliability to network service by enabling hierarchical robustness against multiple failures. The performance results show that the proposed method provide improved resource efficiency for single failure and enhanced robustness for multiple failures.

This paper studies network recovery method using logical multiple ring architecture embedded in WDM optical Internet environment. The multiple ring-based recovery method provides fast and simple network restoration operation, and performs local recovery that is detouring the failed link. The multiple ring architecture can provide higher resource efficiency by sharing the backup routes and reducing the number of spare wavelengths. This paper calculates the required spare capacity ratio using Cut-Sets in the given network topology and performs simulation for comparative analysis.

For higher reliability against a link failure of a control network in railway vehicles, a recovery mechanism is needed. We introduce a problem that, when a link failure occurs in a ring-topology control network, a node may experience a significant increase of transmission delay depending on its relative position within the network. We then propose two mechanisms to solve this problem: (1) differentiating and prioritizing node traffic in forwarding; and (2) switching some nodes to a backup bus-topology network. Our simulation study shows that, while the first mechanism achieves a limited gain by only compensating queuing delay, the second one gets a sufficient gain which is impacted by the number of nodes switched to the bus network.
